CUSTOMER LOYALTY REWARDS PROGRAMS USED TO CONVINCE THE PUBLIC TO ACCEPT 9,000 PRIVATE LICENSE PLATE READERS

The die has been cast, whether it is digital drivers licenses, digital license plates, license plate readers or facial recognition cameras. Everyone from private corporations to law enforcement follows the same script; offer Americans customer loyalty rewards programs in exchange for the loss of their privacy.

A Massachusetts company called Novume which recently acquired Open ALPR Technology Inc. boasts that their free software is being used by private corporations and governments in more than 9,000 private license plate readers.worldwide.

It is time for the public to stand up to law enforcement and politicians and tell them we no longer believe their lies. Especially after Novume revealed how license plate reader companies plan to create a “global vehicle recognition market.”

License plate readers use customer loyalty rewards to gain acceptance

In the beginning of my story, I mentioned that customer loyalty rewards were being offered to Americans in exchange for the loss of their privacy. Novume’s Press Release page boasts about how they offer customer loyalty rewards to Smart City projects, educational facilities, parking management etc.

“We’re excited to achieve the milestone of over 9,000 cameras, and to work through our pipeline to surpass 10,000 cameras and beyond in 2019, said Erik Strafford, OpenALPR’s Director of Business Development. Demand for LPR solutions continues to increase within industries like law enforcement, private security, smart city applications, parking management and customer loyalty programs, as well as security for corporate and educational facilities.”

What will it take for people to fight back against Big Brother/corporate spying? 10,000 or 20,000 private license plate readers? Where will Americans finally draw the line?

Corporate/law enforcement loyalty rewards programs have become the norm.

It is time for Americans to see what is really behind the curtain [of public safety]. Americans need to see how customer loyalty rewards programs are part of a massive interconnected surveillance network.

Below is a list of 13 disturbing corporate/law enforcement customer loyalty rewards programs currently in use today.
